Fairy

Appearance

Short humanoids with elongated pointy ears and proportionate bodies. These butterfly-winged people live in the Feywild and are known for causing all kinds of trickery and whimsy.

Naming Convention

Fairies typically have elderly english names with odd spellings such as Wynnivyre or Djeoffrie.

Biology

They are usually between 3 and 4 feet tall with small wings usually derived from some sort of insectoid. The norm is for butterfly or moth wings, but some fairies are recorded as having wings like a dragonfly or grasshopper. They live about as long as humans do.

Geography

Fairies are almost exclusively native to the Feywild and they don't particularly enjoy the material plane, as many of the less educated folk have beliefs that fairies will grant wishes if they're captured.

Satyr

Appearance

These humanoid goat-men exist alongside other Fey creatures and are known for having incredible stamina and craftsmanship.

Naming Convention

Satyrs typically have Irish names such as Siobhan or Oscar.

Biology

They're functionally similar to humans, except that that their lower half is derived from the features of a goat. They have strong thighs and inverted knees that end in cloven hooves. Their legs are covered in a thick hair that keeps them warm.

Geography

Satyrs live in the Feywild in fey villages along with other fey creatures, none are known to live outside the Feywild.

Centaur

Appearance

These majestic beings sport the bottom half of a horse and the torso and head of a human. They are rare even in the Feywild and have temperaments similar to that of sphinxes, as they tend to be overly serious and fond of games.

Naming Convention

Centaurs have names similar to Tolkien elvish names, like Rhiannon and Elleariel.

Biology

At the waist, Centaurs have the body and functional capability of a horse, able to gallop at great speeds across the wide fields of the Feywild. From the waist up, Centaurs are humanoid, often sporting horns or unique traits like two sets of ears and even three eyes on occasion. Their upper half is capable of great strength and despite their unwieldy shape and size, Centaurs are capable warriors and even craftsmen. They live roughly the same amount of time as dwarves.

Geography

Centaurs live in small herds across the Feywild's numerous plains. A few families have been known to live in more diverse Fey villages but they keep to themselves if given the opportunity.

Pixie

Appearance

Not to be mistaken for a Fairy, and will not take kindly if one does make this all-too-common mistake. These tiny people have access to wild magics and are known to treat life like a game.

Naming Convention

Pixies are almost always named after some sort of plant or flower.

Biology

They're somewhat proportionate humanoids, save for the fact that they rarely crest eight inches in height. They shed a dust from their mothlike wings and some are known to have antennae that they use to channel magic. Pixies have fairly short lifespans, usually only living between 30 and 40 years, and because of this they live life with a bit of a whimsical, daredevil attitude.

Geography

Scattered about the Feywild, pixies usually live among clusters of flowers and trees, rarely joining with the civilized sections of the plane. Pixies are not trusted because their nature can change on a whim and they will just as likely backstab you as they will help you.
